Hello, and thank you for reading! My name is L. Mattson (they/them), and I recently moved to Portland, OR, for an upcoming job at a group therapy practice. I have a Masters of Social Work, and Bachelors in psychology and dance. Throughout my studies, I held various positions in childcare, and I want to continue my role as a baby sitter and nanny while in my professional role. I enjoy working with families and providing this support. I have experience caring for children as young as 6 weeks old to as old as 22, in a range of mental and physical abilities. I know this sounds broad! In particular, I have worked in early childhood centers in the infants and toddlers rooms, as an afterschool elementary art teacher, a preschool to middle school aged dance instructor, and a long term summer nanny for children aged 3 to 12! One of Read more my families I worked with for four summers, and got see them grow from ages 3 and 5 up to the oldest being 10. I am comfortable offering transportation, am CPR, first aid, and lifeguard trained, and can offer support with homework depending on age of child. I am playful, and love to craft, dance, explore, and teach--generally, I am excited to learn with you kiddos, and support you how I can, whether for date nights, trips, or breaks.
